Lindsey

Lindsey is one of the traditional parts of the territory of the county of Lincolnshire in England. The other areas are Holland and Kesteven.

The name goes back to the Kingdom of Lindsey from the time of the Heptarchy. The area was from 1888 to 1974 an administrative county. This was then dissolved as well as the administrative counties of Holland and Kesteven; for the traditional county of Lincolnshire was the first time the status of an administrative county. However, the densely populated areas of the county Lindsey's newly formed Humberside were allocated. This in turn was closed in 1996; its territory was divided into two unitary authorities, namely North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire.

Lindsey was traditional in three areas, so-called Ridings divided (West, North and South Riding ) divided.
